Not sure I know exactly what you do but we might be looking for people to do Sys Admin/Network type of work.  Unfortunately, not likely in the Osaka temp space (you'd have to fight me for that one ;-) so you'd have to settle for Tokyo.  We pay a bit more than what teachers make.  Possibly enough for international school but considering the amount of bug outs that occurred, the price of those is likely to go even higher to cover the shortfall of students.  If you though Lehman Shock was BAD....

You are going to have to convince the spouse and sprog first, though.
If you are interested and can do the stuff we need, we can at least listen.  No guarantees on anything, of course.
